I have not used Google Earth for a while because the images that are available for Caithness were poor.

I logged on to have a look today and it has been updated with some great and clear images of Caithness and the surrounding areas..

Although the images are not new (probably about 5 years old as Lidl is there, but no Homebase etc) it does give some interesting features on the landscape.

One that intrigues me in particular is a large field at Noss head farm that is one field away from the farm buildings to the west and has some very symmetrical shapes in it. I would guess it would have something to do with the airport.

It is also very apparent how the fields are all rectangle or square.

You are proberbly about right with the date, but why has it taken till now to be able to see them up close with such quality?
